� Roses Are Red, Jokes Are Blue �Get ready to laugh your heart out just in time for Valentine’s Day!
Whether you’re celebrating with your sweetheart, rolling in with your friends, or flying solo, this pre-Valentine’s bash is the perfect way to kick off the season of love—with lots of laughs and zero pressure. Expect sharp wit, outrageous stories, and comedy that’s guaranteed to tickle your funny bone (and maybe your heart, too).
Bring a date, bring your pals, or just bring your sense of humor—because love may be unpredictable, but laughter is always a sure thing!
Headliner: Jennifer Espenshade
Although Jennifer has been doing standup comedy for only a few years, she has been entertaining crowds for the past 25 years as a performer at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire, doing comedy in a giant pit of mud! She was also the co-owner of an improv comedy troupe, and also taught improvisation at Open Stage of Harrisburg. Her transition from improv and mud pit diving to standup seemed like a natural progression, plus, standup is much more forgiving on her aging body.
Feature: Bob Marsdale
A former radio DJ who has appeared at the Tropicana, Taj-Mahal, Mohegan Sun, and Parx Casino's. A semi-finalist in John Debella's 102.9 WMGK's Comedy Competition, Bob has also appeared in "Stuff Philly Fans Say", which was featured on the WIP Morning Show with Angelo Cataldi. Bob is known for his dead-on impersonations, and observational humor. He is a regular at comedy clubs throughout the east coast.
Opener: Troy Moore
Winner of the Cabaret Comedy Clubs funniest comic contest.
Host: Keith Purnell
Keith is one of the fastest rising comics from Delaware. He's a high energy performer whose quick wit, style, and fast pace humor make him a hit and personal favorite of audiences young and old. He performs at Comedy Clubs across the country and has appeared on Television and in Movies. He was a winner in the Howard Stern "K*ll or Be Killed" Comedy Competition and was the Philadelphia Regional winner in the Sierra Mist Next Great Comic Comedy Competition.
